Great to see you back and listen to this fine tune (cool backstory also).
The island vibe is nailed with the arrangement and excellent selection of tracks.
(all wrapped in a fine mix). The drum mashup and your acoustic sound good.
And those smooooooth vocals ice the cake.
There is a lot of feel similar to James Taylor’s Gorilla album ... a good thing.
Enjoyed it!
J&B

Good song Scott. Very relatable and the music really takes you away to the islands. I thought you made great use of that nylon guitar throughout and the ooh and ahhs came out nicely as well. Very easy listen. That Brent Mason can really play! Thanks for - no pun intended - picking up on that, noting that:) Seriously, I appreciate the listen and the feedback. Scott

Hi, Scott. Well done with an engaging story. Excellent arrangement as well - loved the interplay between the instruments. Good job singing it as well.  Thanks, David. Scott,
You've really captured that tropical vibe with this! I know that is a good feeling when you've had a tune in the back of your mind for a long time and then finally be able to bring it to life! This is a great song with a great vocal also!
Thanks, Torrey Thanks so much. It's funny how some songs just pop out, others have to dragged out into the open, and still others never see the light of day. Thanks again for the listen, Torrey.

Very cool!
Song has a James Taylor vibe to it. Really well constructed and mixed.
Great vocal too.
Thank you, David! Scott,
You nailed the Island vibe! No matter how long it took, the song is a keeper and the highlight for me is your warm, relaxed vocal. Good mix with those oohs/aahs fitting well.
Well done.
Robert.
I appreciate that, Robert. Thanks. That's my first time trying out those BGV's. I like them a lot.

Scott,
Very cool and catchy tune. Excellent lyrics and vocals. Neat progression. Those Oohs and Aahs worked out very well. Clear mix & listens very well. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

J&B Your feedback always means a lot to me. Thank you:) JT? Wild. The reference track was the Ka'au Crater Boys' "You Don't Write." We lived on Oahu for few years in the early '90's and they were popular then. Thanks again, you two. Take care. Scott

Light feel good song is an excellent fit for the dark days of autumn. Great dreamful backing track, very nice Latin rhythm and enjoyable vocals. I can fully understand why a song called Tomorrow (mañana) took 40 years to finish  Janne

I love this man, great work.

Love it Scott! Love the island feel and you've got a smooth vocal delivery. Great job with the oohs and ahhs. Who is doing the acoustic guitar fill? BIAB or you? Very nice either way.

Scott, I have always considered you to be one of the best singers on the forum and this shows why. Good mix and that Brent real track is one of my favorites. Great job! Tom

Dewey That's Brent Mason doing all of that great guitar work. Just the other day I commented on his Instagram telling him his RT's are fantastic and that I've used many of them. He said 'Thx!' which made my day. Thanks for the listen and the kind words. Love this island groove, very Jimmy Buffet style
Great backing back
Super lyrics and mix
Your vocal is so smooth like icing on a cake

PS - please don't wait 2 years to post your next song. Thank you, Mario! I'm mixing another one now. It's only 30 years old:) Hi Scott,
This song really takes us to a nice and warm island to enjoy a lovely, peaceful holiday.
Well done!
Rob and Anne-Marie We lived on Oahu for about three years, though the song pre-dates that adventure. I hope you have a good time on your next island holiday:) Thanks for the spin and the feedback. Scott, I have always considered you to be one of the best singers on the forum and this shows why. Good mix and that Brent real track is one of my favorites. Great job! Tom Gosh, Tom, what a nice thing to say. Thank you. That Brent Mason is something. If you follow his Instagram you can watch him laying down tracks. He's definitely got it. But hey, you ain't too bad yourself. Be well.

Hi Scott,
I als had a thought of making fun about the 40 years of composing. Even Leonard Cohen was closer than that.
But than I noticed others already made fun, so I concentrated on the song itself.
It is a very nice song that makes you long for a tropical island and a glass of rum, but I especially liked your vocals! Very cool!
Are you doing more with it, or do I have to get older to hear more (sh*t!, another crappy joke I said I wouldn't make).
Seriously, like a lot what I heard. Hope to hear more from you!
Hans

Hans Thanks! Not planning more with this song except that I may go back and master it closer to -10 LUFS or so. I targeted -14 LUFS but have since learned that's not ideal. I've noticed several folks in the forum going back to earlier productions and updating them. That's on my to do list also, but for now I'm working on finishing a few more oldies and sharing them for the first time:)
